Hi Carsten, We are unable to work with this file at this time as it does not work with our local install of kramdown-rfc or with author-tools. author-tools does already support utftex and tex2svg: https://github.com/ietf-tools/author-tools/pull/368. Additionally, we have opened an issue regarding kgt: https://github.com/ietf-tools/author-tools/issues/617.
Please submit a markdown file that works with author-tools or let us know if you prefer to default to working with XML for this document.
